The best and most unique pizza!! Their hot wings are also so flavorful. The quality is also fairly consistent. read more

Big Al's Pizzeria - Hot wings and shawarma/burger pizza - Pizza Near Me - Maywood, California

I took my family to your Maywood location yesterday. In the past, we've visited with a larger group, and the food was always fresh -- we never had any bad experiences. However, yesterday we ordered two pizzas -- a Meat Lover (XL) and a Chicken (Large) -- and honestly, the Meat Lover was extremely salty, missing a topping, and the ingredients did not taste fresh. The crust was also burnt. The Chicken pizza had the same issues: it wasn't fresh, and the crust was burnt as well. We may have been the last customers of the night, but we still expected fresh, properly prepared pizza. read more

This review has been 10 years in the making. Today for the first time in 10 years I made the trek to Big Al's. I will say things have changed and that is why the minus 1 star. Pizza is soooo good, but it used to be better. Lebanese pizza was flavorful but the dry garlic chicken left me a bit sad. Carne asada pizza was rich with savory flavor but I think having it right out of the oven would have been better. Seating no longer offered so had to drive it home and reheat it. The experience of eating it hot and ready was part of my original ritual. Lemon pepper wings were still fire. Seriously no notes. Cheesecake was also tasty but I recall it being less creamy and more cake-y before. Kind of funny they were locked up in the freezer, but perhaps for good reason? Price wise it's worth it as a treat, this isn't an everyday pizza. Place could use a good clean with the kitchen visible. Although I miss the previous glory version I would still very much recommend this spot! read more

Undoubtedly the best buffalo chicken pizza in the universe. The wings are always solid, flavorful, and pack a punch of heat. One of my favorite meals, even if they make you wait beyond your pickup time. I forgive them every time. read more

Big Al's Pizzeria - LG Buffalo Ranch Chicken - Pizza Near Me - Maywood, California

The food was amazing. Crust is soft yet crunchy, meat was enough and not overpowering, cheese was plentiful, sauce was just perfect. Pizzas were ready when promised. How can you go wrong. I finally found a good pizza place that I can count on. read more

Came here because there are so many good reviews but was greatly disappointed. The wings were decent, however the pizza was lacking-- definitely looked better than it tasted. The chicken on the pizza was dry, the flavor of the Lebanese garlic chicken was bland, and the pizza crust seemed like one of those premade crusts (not even a dough you have to stretch and shape) you buy at the grocery store. Pretty expensive for the quality of food served. read more

We came here before a concert that was about 15m away. When we saw the entrance it looked like a take out only situation. We ended up going elsewhere but after the reviews mentioned wings and beer my friend called to see if there was indeed a space to eat. There is! It is to the left of the entrance but it has window coverings and they were being washed when we arrived so we thought it was part of another business. It seems they used to have more of a dine in situation. There were several empty tables and a few tvs in the room. After we ordered our food we sat down and waited for the text message. We got a Lebanese chicken pizza and smoked brisket pizza along with lemon pepper and bbq wings. I was the only one who liked the lemon wings. It had a strong flavor and I was all over it. The chicken is cooked well and they are smothered with sauce. They are quite greasy though. The pizza was ok. The crust reminds me of Domino's. The brisket was flavorful me but the friends thought it was just ok. The other pizza had interesting flavors but the pickled veggies weren't as appreciated as they probably should have been. They definitely get most of their business through take out. Interesting flavors though nothing really wowed us (except me with the lemon wings) read more

This place doesn't deserve a star . The cheese and pepperoni are so salty . The crust is thin and dry . None of my family liked it for two Xl pizzas and some wings and a it was 91 dollars . This play is going to go down hill with those prices . Don't recommend. read more

It's important to note that their pizzas are smaller than other places. For instance, the XL pizza is just 8 slices and my friend and I got full off 3 slices. A half & half speciality XL pizza cost us $40.52. We tried the meat lovers and Lebanese chicken. Right next door is their dine-in area which is quite messy, unorganized, and dilapidated. I like the fact that they were punctual with my order. I felt the meat lovers was average. However, the Lebanese chicken was full of life and flavor. As for the crust, some parts of it were burnt and not tasty. If you're paying $40 for pizza, you might as well try their unique options. They also don't have cups of water so it's only really ideal for delivery or pick up. read more

Big Al's Pizzeria - XL Meat lovers and Lebanese chicken - Pizza Near Me - Maywood, California

Best place for pizza ever, love the beef brisket sandwich. Perfectly pulled tender meat and home made sauce. I drive all the way from downtown La to get this food. Wish they had a location in Los Angeles. Can't go wrong with beef brisket pizza read more

Ordered the meatlovers and brisket which was over $90 for 2 XL's. Pizza is small and lacked flavor and toppings for price. I'd give 3 stars for pizza but knocked it down for price, size, and toppings. read more

I'm not even going to lie to yall, I was suppose to go to Te Amo pizza with my girl but my sister said I should try this instead. Me and my Wiz split a small meat lovers, buffalo wings and brisket sammich. They also had ginger beer which made my main squeeze happy. Let's start with the pizza. Let's keep it a thousand, it is expensive. I didn't know that going in so I was surprised. Not their fault, it's my own. The meat lovers was good. Would I get again? If that's what someone wanted, but if it was solely for me, maybe something less meaty. The wings...they're good. I wish their buffalo had some spice but the actual wing is cooked well and got a good crisp. They also do by the pound the amount you get may differ which isn't really ideal. The brisket sammich, my personal favorite of the three. My sister recommended I get it and she did not let me down. I'll be back soon, I'll probably still complain about the pizza prices when I do but imma pay that pay. Shoutout to Big Al and Blood in Blood Out. read more

This is one of my go- to spots for pizza. Prices are a little higher than an average pizza but it's always worth it. The carne asada pizza is my favorite! I appreciate that they are never stingy with toppings. The pizza does come spicy, so for anyone that is sensitive to spice.. this is your warning! Portions are always big enough so you'll have leftovers-- but trust me, you won't have any because the pizza is THAT good read more

I picked up an order yesterday before they closed and they gave me the wrong wings. They gave me buffalo instead of call "em BBQ. I didn't noticed until I got home. Extremely disappointed because I'm not a buffalo wings fan. read more

Big Al's Pizzeria - Not what I ordered - Pizza Near Me - Maywood, California

If you ever visit LA, be sure to eat here !!! The food was exceptional :) All thanks to my sister-in-law who suggested me this eatery! Their flavours/sauces were delectable and most of all it was HALAL !!! DOUBLE YAYYYY!!!! As you can see, we went all in and ordered like crazy. My husband got their star dish- BBQ beef brisket. He went crazy after his first bite. So perfectly charred flavour and juicy !! Literally mouth- watering !!! I don't eat beef but I just gave in and took a bite ;) Their Buffalo Ranch chicken Pizza was so wholesome, I can't even begin to tell you guys how satisfying it was. So rich in flavour!! And I've just realised that I've emphasised on the word "FLAVOUR" a lot of times now ;) Also got their Hot sweet n spicy one pound chicken wings and I'm in love. Cooked to perfection! Juicy, tender and the sauce was something else !!!! This is going to be our go to place every time we visit LA now !!! Went in on a weekday so no crowd. Got our order in 20mins & a free drink if we checked in on Yelp!!! read more

100/10 Yes, Order it. Very tasty! It appears to be pick up only. Service was on point. Ordered online and it was ready as promised. Pizzeria is located in a shopping center, with plenty of parking. No pictures it was that good. Order : Jalapeno burger pizza 10/10 Pepperoni 10/10 BBQ chicken 10/10 read more

Probably one of the best pizza places I've ever had. The birria pizza was life changing and so flavorful. And the wings too were amazing. It was a little out of our way from where we lived in la but I would definitely make the drive again. read more

Pizza and wings are fire! I really love there lemon pepper wings!! The atmosphere is nice and welcoming.

Was definitely delicious with the chicken and the cheese on top and veggies on the side

Best pizzazz in LA by far. Very good customer service and friendly staff. It's very clean :) Recommend to friends and colleagues. read more

Ordered the BBQ chicken and it was packed with protein. Took about 25 minutes overall. Worth the wait. Will come back again.

Big Al's has always been such a family favorite. But as they've gotten bigger, quality has slowly been going down. The Maywood location was still consistent but today, even they disappointed. We got a brisket and a meat lovers pizza. The meat lovers was soooo salty. I couldn't eat more than 3 bites. We also got a lemon pepper wings and all the sauce was on one side of the box and the wings were not even tossed. Salt on this was high as well. The only decent thing was the brisket pizza, hence the 3 stars. Inside lacked the usual homey feeling the owners had put out. Now it's ran by workers and service is lackluster. I'm so sad and disappointed. read more

Customer service is good. We look at the menu, and decided to come and buy slices of pizza, come to find out they only sell slices of pizza in the morning. Odd? Why not state that on the menu would be nice. We ordered lemon pepper chicken .. and big Al pizza.. price wise, I think overpriced!!! $32 dollars for a large pizza? Yikes! Pretty crazy to me! $15 for wings 6-8 pieces if wings! Call me crazy to come here again. Insane prices read more

*ORANGE LOCATION* I was there recently. It was my first time at the Orange location. Easy to get to. Location is in a corner intersection. The place is nice and spacious. When I placed my order, I was told it would be a 35 minute wait. I returned and my food was not ready. It took about 50 minutes to get my order. That was disappointing as the Maywood location is usually prompt with their time delivery. The food quality was delicious as always. I had the beef, jalapeño and pineapple pizza with sweet & spicy wings and bbq brisket sandwich loved it! I enjoy going to Big Al's Pizzeria, but it was a miss. I'll keep my business with the Maywood location. read more

A very rare halal pizza spot offering specialty pizzas fusing middle-eastern food with a slice of Americana. I'm willing to shell out a few dollars more for 2023 adjusted for inflation prices, but 34 dollars for a small, specialty pizza and a slice of cheesecake is on the higher end of things. For the pizza: There's a lot of specialty pizzas for you to choose from. I went with the prevailing number one choice on yelp: The garlic labanese chicken pizza. I wish I went with a different one though. Although it tasted literally like a pita Shawarma pizza (if there was ever such a thing), there's too much ingredients on the small size for it to hold it's own weight. As a result, the toppings slid right off. And I mean right off. The ranch synergies well with the garlic. So much so, the middle-eastern pita/pizza tastes way too much like a pita, less like a pizza. Although I like things different, there are certain things I still continue to hold true to this day when it comes to pizza: No pineapple. No garlic. No anchovies. This is unfortunately not the exception. Even worse, the chicken was only half-baked, and I'm not talking about the feel good pie n the hazy sky kind. Undercooked, it kinda tasted funky and some of the bits were shredded, while others were cubed shape. Texture was kinda gnarly Wasn't cooked evenly and consistently within the pizza. Gave off a not so pleasing and undercooked type of aftertaste. So 2/5 for the Lebanese garlic chicken pizza. It feels like I'd have a happier time with any other of their specialties, and I would try this place again. The saving grace was their homemade dessert. I ordered the Oreo strawberry cheesecake. And this was a perfect 5/5. Everything about this was amazing. From what it appeared as organic and homemade strawberry paste-jam and creme garnish atop, to the durable but not tooth breaking hard crust. Yes, it's close to 11 dollars, but I'd be happy to pay that again for the type of quality. read more

This is the best pizza you will ever taste!!! Hands down.... I guaranteeeerrd just like Charles Barkley. I was taken here for my birthday and it was a great experience and I really enjoyed it. Big Al makes sure you have a great experience. Thanks again.... My favorite is the Lebanon garlic read more

l's Pizzeria absolutely lives up to the hype. From the moment you walk in, the aroma alone tells you you're about to eat something special. The crust is perfect -- that rare balance of crispy on the outside with a warm, chewy center. You can tell it's made fresh, not rushed, and definitely not generic. If you're looking for the best pizza ever, Big Al's is the spot. Once you try it, everywhere else just tastes like a downgrade. read more

Had this place bookmarked but never convenient for us to make the drive to try the pizza here! Finally had the opportunity yesterday! Located in a little plaza with adequate parking. They offer a reward system, so it's definitely a plus for locals! You have the option to phone in order, order online or order in person. We placed our order in person and went next door to wait for our pizza and wing a to be ready. Next door, there are lots of tables and chairs as well as TV and restroom access. The pizza was very pretty and pleasing to the eyes and pictures. Love their take on pizza toppings but the chicken for the Lebanese garlic chicken was a bit dry but the other half of our pizza was great! Love the textures. Also love their take on lemon pepper wings, I am a fan! Would recommend this place if your in the area. read more

Alhamdulillah! A legit halal pizza spot in LA county. So to preface this review... I have no pictures to show cause no time was wasted to devour. LOL. Do i recommend this spot? Is the pizza tasty and worth the hype? Are the wings fire? A B S O L U T E L Y 12/10 The location is conveniently located and huge plus is that they have a separate dining area (if you can't wait) to feast at home. I ordered their large- 1/2 Lebanese Garlic Chicken and 1/2 Pepperoni and a LB. of Crispy plain wings with buffalo sauce on the side. Taste buds were dancin. Packed with flavor. Dough was chewy and delicious. Wings were baked perfect to the crunch. Counter person was helpful and pizza came out in under 20 min from the time of ordering. To my Halal and non Halal eaters- worth a try and worth the drive if you're not local!!! read more

Pizza was not good at all. 100 bucks down the drain. 1 large meat lovers pizza that was burnt. 1 small Lebanese garlic pizza, very pretty but lacked flavor. Lemon pepper wings and red dragon wings are the reason for the 2 star rating they were good. Customer service was good, friendly staff. read more

Food is amazing and great customer service. The wait time was accurate and the food was delicious

Seriously one of the best pizzas I've ever had. Price point is kinda high and their wings are just okay. Food: I've gone here at least twice now, trying two different pizzas. For $30 you can get a pizza for 8 slices with enough slices for 3-4 people. Highly recommend the al pastor and the garlic chicken half and half. Wings are okay. Ordered the lemon pepper before and the chicken wings were literally drenched in oil. Yikes. Service: Pizzas here take about 30-45 minutes to make. Better to call-in ahead of time. They also don't tell you but there's seating area next door on the left side of the restaurants. Not really well-maintained as the music sometimes doesn't play or the tv's that are on play at very low volume so you're sitting there in awkward silence. Hey, at least they have an onsite bathroom. Overall, the only saving this place from a 3 star review is the flavor and quality of the pizza. If the pizza wasn't good here, I wouldn't be coming back. read more

The kosher halal pizza was hot, delicious, and the toppings were generously portioned. Ordering was quick and easy at the restaurant, though the online platform wouldn't process the purchase from our place. The staff and location made the visit easy and left our experience with a true appreciation for the quality and the flavor. read more

I've wanted to try this pizzeria for a while. Although I wouldn't say I was disappointed, i most likely wouldn't need to return. The service wasn't that warm and friendly and the restaurant is in a state of renovation but that's ok.... Down to the business of food taste.... I ordered a half Brisket Pizza /Lebanese Chicken pizza and Brisket Sub. I must say that I like the half half pizza options. Both flavors on the Pizza were good although I think I preferred the Lebanese Chicken flavors. I think the Brisket Pizza either needed more meat on it or something else to make it stand out. The crust was tasty. The Brisket Sub translated a lot better with flavor and was enjoyable. For dessert I ordered the Chocolate Cashew Fingers. The taste reminded me of a more expensive Kit Kat. Definitely try it if you're in the area. read more

The pizza is good. The customer service is bad. The business owner needs to implement on a customer service training for his employees. This is the third time that I get bad customer service at this place. Please just fix that and you guys will do great. Thanks again! read more

I tried this years ago when there was seating inside and I liked the variety of pizza and wings . Most recently I was disappointed with the quality . 2 large pizza and one X-Large for $80+ is a bit absurd especially because they were pepperoni so nothing special . read more

We first found Big Al's Pizzeria on IG. All of their pizzas caught our eye because of the unique flavors that they serve. We know that often times when you see something on IG and go experience a place in person it may not be as expected. That was NOT the case with Big Al's Pizzeria. WOW!! Can't even tell you how much they exceeded our expectations when it came to the flavors and textures that they deliver. You can tell that they use High Quality, Fresh Ingredients and take pride in their creations, especially with everything being homemade!! I know a lot of people say that it takes a while to receive their pizza but we can tell you IT IS WORTH THE WAIT AND CALORIES!! The combinations on their pizzas are next level and so fun and unique! The pizza dough has the perfect fluffiness, chewy texture and flavor. The wings WOW! Definitely in our top 5 of favorites! So crispy and flavorful! OOh plus the Brisket Sandwich and the bread they use... ufffff!!! Don't forget about Dessert! Even if you fill up on pizza you better at least take a slice home with you because IT IS WORTH IT!! They are large, creamy, flavorful and just AMAZEBALLS! We got the Tiramisu and it was NEXT LEVEL! Everything is OUT OF THIS WORLD and we can't recommend them enough! read more

Flavor town! Beef Brisket Sub is the bee's knee's. Carne asada pizza was okay. Business center shares parking lot. Dining area is next door to the restaurant. It may be confusing for first time customers when the suns out because you can't see through the reflective film they have on the windows as to see which door leads to either part of the restaurant and it's not clearly labeled. read more
